The Brazilians have a history of having their players go to Al Ahly and falling flat such as the case of Phakamani Mahlambi.
At this stage, it appears that there is interest in Mokoena from Ligue 1 in France and the English Premier League.
His dead-ball prowess and strong midfield presence would make him a great fit for several English Premier League teams.
Former Kaizer Chiefs star Junior Khanye believes that Sundowns will be hard-pressed to keep Mokoena and Bafana Bafana skipper Ronwen Williams at Chloorkop.
“Hard luck to Ronwen Williams, he deserves to go to Europe. Him and Mokoena, I don’t know how Sundowns will keep them,” Khanye said in one of his iDiski TV segments.
